About our fire rated sealant in Wilsontown
Later work by other trades often breaks through fire stopping, especially in flats, HMOs, offices and schools. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. If you have gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated and fire stopping disturbed by later work, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For a place like Wilsontown, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so it can be fitted around bookings or opening times where possible.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

What else we do in Wilsontown
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
How we quote for fire rated sealant
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number and length of the joints
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- A few photos by email, if you can
- How we’d reach the joints
- Roughly how big the job is
For a quote, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Wilsontown
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it is not installed as tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried particularly when it was the last job before handover.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
If you let a flat or house near Breich station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Leave it or put it right?
An unsealed gap lets smoke and fire get round a wall that was built to hold them back. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the sealing itself is often a contained piece of work. In an older home around Wilsontown, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Wilsontown: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Breich station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Is Wilsontown within the area you cover?
Yes. Wilsontown is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
What fire rating will the seal have?
Ratings and certification sit with the product’s test evidence and whoever specified the work. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and list the locations and products for you.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes, if the gap is within the product’s tested range. Our work is the gap around the frame, and we will mention anything we notice about the door.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first.
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some can’t, so ask us which we used.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, don’t leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded so the item can be closed.
How the visit works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere like Wilsontown may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Clear the area around the work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
